- (a) a hydrogen/oxygen fuel cell assembly;
(b) a hydrogen gas generator having a first heterogeneous mixture comprising lithium borohydride and iron oxide contained therein;
(c) a means to initiate said first mixture to generate gaseous hydrogen;
(d) a means to feed said gaseous hydrogen to said hydrogen/oxygen fuel cell;
(e) an oxygen gas generator having a second heterogeneous mixture comprising sodium chlorate and elemental iron contained therein;
(f) a means to initiate said second mixture to generate gaseous oxygen; and
(g) a means to feed said gaseous oxygen to said hydrogen/oxygen fuel cell.
